TJOA GIOK BENG ( CUA GIOK BENG alias YI HO ),
was born in the city of TJOAN TJIU in the province HOK KIAN (in the harvest year), at the end of Qing-Dynasty. He has unified the complete north and south techniques into one. He developed (at the end of the 19. century) from the techniques TAI TJO, PE HO, TA SENG, LO HAN and TA TJUN the fighting art of the five ancestors (NGO TJO KUN). By combining the foot of the TAI TJO - system, the fingers of the PE HO, the palm of the TA SENG, the foot movement of the LO HAN and the body movements of the TA TJUN - system, he created the system of NGO TJO KUN. To spread the new system, he opened a school with the name LIN KIE TONG. The entrance was framed with signs with the labels on the left: mastering the 8 methods, there isn't any opponent. Right: mastering the Lotus blossom kick, you are the number one. Above: real South boxing. His pupils were distributed all over HOK KIAN.
